Thexder is a solid PC conversion of Game Arts' Japanese hit, licensed to distribute in the US by Sierra. You control a robot ("mech") that is capable of transforming into a jet at any time, wading through level after level of high-tech enemies. All the innovation, however, becomes tiresome quickly as you discover that there is no way to save mid-level, and the levels are *huge*. You also can't switch special weapons during a level, which means you'll need to avoid picking up power-ups you don't need in the midst of all the chaos. All this makes for a very difficult game that's fun only to the most expert and masochistic of gamers.Reviewed by: Underdogs
